19、out my job is eating aloneIt always makes me feel lonely to see others laughing and talking. So, room service for several nights was a better choice for meAfter having room service three nights at a hotel in Houston, however, I needed to get out of my room. Although the restaurant opened at 6：30, I
20、arrived at 6：25. The waiter at the front desk made a comment（评论） about my “being there really early“. I explained my dislike of eating alone in restaurants. He then seated me at a lovely table and asked me whether I would mind if he sat down with me for a while.I was glad! He sat and talked with me
21、about his career goals and the difficulty of being at work on nights, weekends and holidays. He said he hadnt enough time to be with his family. After 15 minutes, he saw some customers at the front desk and excused himself. I noticed that before he went to the front desk, he stopped in the kitchen f
22、or a moment.6Then another waiter came out of the kitchen and had a wonderful chat with me. Before I left that night, some other waiters, even the cook, had come out of the kitchen and sat with me! When I asked for my bill about one hour later, all the people who had sat down with me came over in a b
23、ig group to my table and presented me with a red rose. And I cried! What had begun as a lonely night ended as a beautiful experience.25.

This is a good piece of advice. If you go shopping for food before lunchtime, youll probably buy more than you plan to. Unfor
27、tunately, however, just this advice isnt enough for consumers (消费7者) these days. Modern shoppers need an education in how and how not to buy things at the store. First, you check the weekly newspaper ads. Find out the items that are on sale and decide if you really need these things. In other words,
28、 dont buy anything just because its cheaper than usual! “New and Improved!” or “All Natural” on the front of a package influence you. Instead, read the list of ingredients (配方) on the back. Third, compare prices: that is, you should examine the prices of both different brands and different sizes of
29、the same brand.Another suggestion for consumers is to buy ordinary items instead of famous brands. Ordinary items in supermarkets come in plain packages (普通包装). These products are cheaper because producers dont spend much money on packing or advertising. The quality, however, is usually as good as t
30、he quality of well-known name brands. In the same way, in buying clothes, you can often find high quality and low prices in brands that are not famous. Shopping in discount clothing stores can help you save a lot of money. Although these stores arent very attractive, and they usually do not have ind
31、ividual dressing rooms, not only are the prices low, but you can often find the same famous brands that you find in high-priced department stores.Wise consumers read magazine ads and watch TV commercials, but they do this with one advantage: knowledge of the psychology (心理) behind the ads. In other
32、words, well-informed consumers watch for information and check for misinformation. They ask themselves questions: Is the advertiser hiding something in small print at the bottom (底部) of the page? Is there any real information in the commercial, or is the advertiser simply showing an attractive image
33、? With the answers to these questions, consumers can make a wise choice.29. All the following statements are true about the underlined phrase “ordinary items” in Paragraph 2 except _.A. ordinary products are usually cheaper than famous brandsB. producers spend less money on packaging of ordinary ite
34、ms8C. ordinary items never say “New and Improved” or “All Natural”D. the quality of ordinary items is usually as good as that of famous brands30. One of the authors suggestions to consumers is _.A. to make use of adsB. to buy only ordinary items instead of famous brandsC. to buy high quality items s
35、uch as famous brands after lunchD. not to buy items with words like “New and Improved” or “All Natural”31. The author implies(暗示) that _.A. ads sometimes dont tell the truthB. discount clothing stores are good places to go toC. going into the supermarket hungry, you may buy less than you plan toD. t
36、he quality of ordinary items is usually higher and the prices are relatively lower.DHumans have been keeping animals as pets for tens of thousands of years, but Dr Jean-Loup Rault, an animal scientist at the University of Melbourne in Australia, believes new companions are coming: robot pets.“Techno
37、logy is moving very fast,” Rault told ABC News, “The Tamagotchi in the early 1990s was really the first robotic pet, and now Sony and other big companies have improved them a lot.”This may not sit well with pet lovers. After all, who would choose a plastic toy over a lovely puppy? But Rault argues t
38、hat the robotic kind has a lot going for it: “You dont have to feed it, you dont have to walk it, it wont make a mess in your house, and you can go on a holiday without feeling guilty.” The technology also benefits those who are allergic to pets, short on space, or fearful of real animals.Its not cl
39、ear whether robot pets can replace real ones. But studies do suggest that we can bond with these smart machines. People give their cars names and kids give their toy animals life stories. Its the same with robots. When Sony stopped its repair service for its robot dog Aibo in March 2014, 9owners in
40、Japan held funerals.As an animal welfare researcher, Rault is concerned about how robotic pets could affect our attitudes towards live animals. “If we become used to a robotic companion that doesnt need food, water or exercises, perhaps it will change how humans care about other living beings,” he s
41、aid.So are dogs and cats a thing of the past, as Rault predicts? For those who grew up with living and breathing pets, the mechanical kind might not do. But for our next generation who are in constant touch with smart technology, a future in which lovely pets neednt have a heartbeat might not be a f

Have you ever gotten an idea only to lose it later because you didnt write it down? 37 But then I developed the habit of writing down every idea that came into my mind as soon as possible.
